Woodruff Smith offered a definition of this policy which argued that it was initiated primarily in support of the commercial and industrial sectors. This policy's major architect declared in what is known as the "hammer or anvil" speech that "we cannot allow... any foreign Jupiter to tell us: 'What can be done? The world is already partitioned.'" Manifestations of this policy included the annexation of Kiaochow as well as the commencement of construction on a railway to Baghdad. This policy was prosecuted by men such as Paul Kayser, who for a time headed the newly-established Colonial Department, as well Richard von Kuhlman, who would later serve as foreign secretary. Hallmarks of this policy included a naval arms race with England as well as colonial ambitions that resulted in two Moroccan crises. This policy's main architect, Bernhard von Bulow, claimed that it was motivated by the desire of a certain nation to secure for itself "a place in the sun." Succeeding the earlier Realpolitik as practiced by Otto von Bismarck, for ten points, identify this imperialist foreign policy pursued by Germany after 1897, so named because of its large scope.
